Just when I think I've seen everything....something new
comes up. We've had several calves born through the years
that have had weak ankles. They usually get better with
time. Today, one of our heifers had a nice bull calf. He looks
great until he trys to stand. Both front knees refuse to
support him. The poor thing cannot reach the cow's udder.
We tube-fed him colostrum today. Tomorrow, we will have
to try something to get him on his feet. Any ideas?
